Multiculturalism
filed in Family on Feb.01, 2010
Our school’s once-a-year celebration of diversity is this Friday and I’m feeling a bit left out. We have belly dancers, a Multicultural Choir (which seems to avoid the “Multi-”), and some quality teacher lip-syncing. Sadly—and I’m partly responsible for this, since I didn’t appear for a tryout—there’s nothing to celebrate my English and Welsh heritage.
I searched the web for a Wales jersey and couldn’t find one. By that I mean I guess I could find one, but I’d have to send it from Wales, and it would cost $100. Apparently there isn’t much of a Welsh contingent in the U.S. (Okay, so that haven’t qualified for anything since the 1958 World Cup. Go ahead and kick them while they’re down!) I was going to rep my heritage all day long. No such luck.
So to all my Welsh readers…forget the Paypal donations and send me a Craig Bellamy jersey. C’mon, the guy took a golf club to his teammate’s legs! That’s some proud heritage, there.
